President Obama needs prayer BIG TIME -1Tim 2:1-3

"Humpty Dumpty (Our Political System) sat on a wall (American Confidence in our government) ,
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall
All the King's horsemen and all the Kings men (Our current governing lawmakers)
could not put Humpty Dumpty back together again"

Most people who really know me will say I was never on board with the Obama craze in the 2008 election and that statement is true. My position politically even offended a few of the people in my social circle. In my defense I could not imagine how so many people could put so much faith in a "man" no matter his ethic background. The Obama movement came with an atmosphere of change and hope that has not appeared on the American landscape since MLK. Present circumstances are clear to me,they say Obama is no MLK.

My guide for living is wholly contained in the Bible and using the Bible as my guide I could not possibly support the policies of the current administration on many issues. I did a Bible lesson months ago titled "Obama and Jesus, Can Two Walk Together Accept They Agree" .

In this lesson I was showing how Obama's policies are not inline with Bible morality. The President's claim to be a Christian can not be proven by his actions or His administrations policies. 

Many (not all) African Americans are against anything that remotely criticizes the President. In this blinded group,the excuses for Obama are endless. The ability to be objective with these people is lost. Now some of you will probably label me as a tea party member. Me, a tea party member, you must be kidding me.

The Tea Party is another blinded group of Americans who have lost the ability to be objective. The tea party for the most part, have their opinions based on racial hatred and widely demonstrated ignorance of the Constitution and basic civics. The republic party's allegiance to this rouge political entity's influences, has caused the collapse of this governments ability to work for the major populace of the country. The Obama presidency has proven to be a litmus test for racism in this country. The litmus test reveals racism is alive and well in the USA. The real theme behind the Tea Party is;" We will not let this Black Man tell us what to do right or wrong because to us, He is still a nigger" As painful as it is to even write such an offensive adjective by using the "N" word in my post, I decided to take an artistic liberty to highlight what I deem an atrocious an extremely shameful attitude of these people. 

The Tea Party's position does not at all represent the feeling of most Americans, otherwise Obama would have not been elected. The presidents grass roots organizers did get him elected. However little has been done for his constituency, and this mass of people are the biggest losers in this presidential term. So how did we become the biggest losers? Was it all Bush's fault? Yes some of this is Bush backlash. We had a budget surplus after the Clinton years wiped out by Bush. Tax cuts to the rich, two unsubstantiated wars and the absent of oversight in the financial sector causing the worst economic downturn since the Depression. Bush did throw a bone to our seniors with the prescription add to medicaid. The Bush years equals deceased tax revenues and increased spending resulting in huge budget deficit.

Obama is likely to be NOT reelected in 2012! Which means a worst case scenario for Americans, the world shudders to think what a Republican lead president would do for the stability of world markets, it is indeed a scary thought. How did Obama blow it after coming into office with such positive momentum? Well keeping many of Bush's appointees did not help, were we not looking for change? Bill Gates for example why was he asked to stay on for secretary of defense? I think Gates pretty much trashed any efforts to pull out our troops from Afghanistan and Iraq. Obama's campaign promised that He would withdraw from Afghanistan as soon as He took office, as His first line of business but now we have another 60 thousand troops in this country.The money we spent in wars alone would balance our budget even with wall street and our corrupt banking community problems. Another example of this administrations failures would be the time spent formulating a health care bill at the same time our unemployment rate was raging at 10 percent and for minorities the jobless rate is much higher. Time would have been better spent in creating a jobs bill then instead of now, as it currently seems to be a means of last result. I guess if we get free health care we can go to the hospital if we need to eat.

A few of my thoughts after watching the news...lololol 

1 Tim 2:1 First of all, then, I urge that entreaties and prayers, petitions and thanksgivings, be made on behalf of all men,
1 Tim 2:2 for kings and all who are in authority, so that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and dignity.
1 Tim 2:3 This is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior,

It is either GOD's way or It's the highway.

It is either GOD's way or It's the highway.

Rom 8:28 We are assured and know that [God being a partner in their labor] all things work together and are [fitting into a plan] for good to and for those who love God and are called according to [His] design and purpose.

This is what I mean when I say, it is GOD's way or the highway, only those things that are fitting into the Lord's plan will work together for our good. We dare not use this scripture in a universal sense because it is not applicable in all situations. 

The proper use for this verse occurs when conditions meet the criteria set forth in the scripture. The first thing to notice is that GOD must be a partner  in our labors. Partners work together and in our case the work would be accomplishing the LORD's purpose in our labors. Now when we read our subject scripture the message is more defined. All things do work together for our good when GOD has partnerd in our efforts.

 Mark 16:20 And they went out and preached everywhere, while the Lord worked with them, and confirmed the word by the signs that followed.]


The above scripture, Mark 16:20 identifies an event where the LORD is working with His disciples confirming  His word by the signs that followed. Jesus is a partner in their labors because it was His command that they go forward and preach. The disciples were acting on the plan and purpose of GOD.


This is the plan of GOD:


Mark 16:15 And He said to them, Go into all the world and preach and publish openly the good news (the Gospel) to every creature [of the whole human race].


And, this is the purpose of GOD:

Mark 16:16 He who believes [who adheres to and trusts in and relies on the Gospel and Him Whom it sets forth] and is baptized will be saved [from the penalty of eternal death]; but he who does not believe [who does not adhere to and trust in and rely on the Gospel and Him Whom it sets forth] will be condemned.

Jesus goes on to say that this scripture applies to those who love me and are called according to my design and purpose. We can not proceed merrily along in life apart from the design and purpose of GOD and expect a good result in the end, it is that simple.

Christianity does not operate neither does it exist outside the design and purpose of GOD. And, the design and purpose of GOD is communicated to Christians through His Holy Bible , His Holy Spirit and through His hand picked sanctified and consecrated messengers in the earth.  Christianity fulfills the will of GOD through acting on the revelation knowledge of GOD's purpose.

Col 1:9 For this reason we also, from the day we heard of it, have not ceased to pray and make [special] request for you, [asking] that you may be filled with the full (deep and clear) knowledge of His will in all spiritual wisdom [in comprehensive insight into the ways and purposes of God] and in understanding and discernment of spiritual things--
